The forbidden 'G' sound

Saxophone player Kenny G posted photos on facebook that he 'walked by' Occupy Central site during his latest visit to HK and made a very mild remark. This action made Chinese officials very unhappy. It was even being addressed in the foreign policy level. Sadly.,Kenny G quickly reiterated his support for the Chinese in general (Jacky Chan for example, he may not know what lately happened to Jacky Chan's son in China). He stressed that he was/is not in support of the movement. Anyway, he certainly treasures the market in China. That is how we can see China's 'soft power'. Honestly Hong Kongers no longer listen to his music. He was a lot popular in HK in 90's but not now. Not many kids know him.
